Mark Grant is not only one of the best cable sellers around (IMHO), but he's also a real gent. I haven't bought much from him as I'm not a 'cable swapper', but everything arrived next day, well packed with a 30 day return if not happy . . . I have yet to send anything back.

Very highly recommended.

Most folk do, but a gentle reminder is sometimes needed that there is more than one supplier of said wares on AoS ;)

+1 for not having to spend hundreds of pounds. Its amazing what results you can get when you make your own. I made several homemade power cables simply from 3mm solid silver core, teflon dialetic, double shielded braiding into a silver plated plug, I must admit I did you a solid silver IeGo IEC but I got those of eBay very cheaply, for less than £85 I'm a very happy bunny. I won't be fooled into buying stupidly expensive power cables and I dont think I will ever upgrade the ones I made + I have the satisfaction of Knowing I made them myself ;)

I use Marks cables here and there amongst my home made stuff (HD interconnects and excellent mains cable) and recommend his products and service very highly indeed. Happy to promote him as his stuff isn't too silly in price, he's lovely to deal with and he doesn't seem to want his ego massaged every other thread.....

If you can't or don't wish to make your own with high grade 75 ohm AV cable (the Van Damme thinner gauge one makes a great analogue interconnect too I find), then Mark Grant is a wonderful chap to use - shill be damned, I don't know him personally but have had stunning service from him on the few cables and accessories I've bought at standard prices. No bullsh*t, over-hyping or 'doing it for the max profit I can make out of the punters,' just carefully judged products at mostly fair prices!

SO THERE!!!
